[VolsCigarMan]

AND Barry is a super nice guy. You gotta love it when good guys win.

yes that's true

 

[VFLnSFD]

I actually was. Student section. Couldn't talk for 3 days afterward.

Here here. Me too. I ripped my favorite shorts climbing the fence to get onto the field.

 

[Kid Deezy]

What trying to put all the pieces and insider information together looks like.

Some are more like this though...

 

[VolunteerHillbilly]

I picture Neil Patrick Harris playing the role of Beaver when they make the movie.

 

[VFLnSFD]

As was I. Was sitting under the V in the upper deck of the south end zone. Knew we won a fraction of a second before everyone else, since I was perfectly in line to see UF's field goal hook and miss left.

I was in E row 20 or so.

 

[The Comb]

Head Cheerleader.

Though he does need to shave those legs.

No shave November

This thread is why I finally joined VN. Would lurk for years during times of big issues recruiting, coach's, etc. This thread is way too fun to not join. Bring him home

 

[SmokinBob]

Haha, Exile, I can't even keep up with this thread, much less backtrack!

It's like that internet "truism" that if you lined up to shake hands with every citizen of India one after the other, you'd never finish, because they are born faster than you can shake hands. Heh.

Welcome to the grude thread!

AtlantaVol confirmed more than that. He confirmed that the info Beav was sharing could be trusted because he could vouch for the answers he gave when everyone was trying to pin him down. He went on to post after they connected that the info he was sharing was similar to some things he was hearing now that he wasn’t hearing before. At the end of the day, AtlantaVol is a very trusted poster and his stamp on Beav gave most people permission to at the minimum, entertain what he was saying.

I'm telling you, Beaver is AV.

 

[TenUhSee]

if butch was gonna be here next year:
1) he wouldn't be begging boosters for support
2) he'd be all over cade mays de-commit like white on rice

even stevie wonder can see that BJ is out.

 

[VolFan32]

I was in BB. 5th grade. What a game.

 

[Coastypop]

Remind me who ended up being correct in 2012?

Me.... it was the failure off the contract that was incorrect

 

[SSVol]

Here here. Me too. I ripped my favorite shorts climbing the fence to get onto the field.

So you were one of the vandals that tore down the goal posts?

 

[VFLnSFD]

So you were one of the vandals that tore down the goal posts?

Yes.

 

[Kid Deezy]

No shave November

Better go with Don't Shave December or GV will will be after you

 

[Coastypop]

About as many who claim to have been at the 98 Florida game

The same number of my generation that attended Woodstock

 

[Halph66]

no shave november

 

[Rizzo924]

Haha. Yes. I've heard enough beaver jokes to last any woman 15 lifetimes.

I wish I had a dollar for every time since 10/19/17 that I've wished the beaver was NOT MIT's mascot, I'd be rich!

I believe there were about 5-7 people who knew he was coming in 2012 and many of us latched on to it. When it didn’t happen, they took a beating on Volnation and were scarce. Those who felt jilted, said so and now suffer from BVS and Butthurtness and refuse to let it go. Those of us who believed our AD screwed it up, sat back and watched a male lesbian take our team down the crapper and called him out for it. After Ga, the thread became alive and all of a sudden there was a reunion of former OGs and believers. Then, as Botch continued to ,well, Botch things up Grudens name began to come up and some of the same
Guys began to hear the rumblings again. We all latched on, and over the coursed the past month, some new insiders, great intellectual thinkers and the original OGs begin to realize more had been happening over the past 5 years than we’d known. That this shift back to becoming elite as a football team AND a university had been coming together thanks to the effort of boosters who decided Boss Hogg no longer needed to run Hazzard County and it was not just a wish but was becoming a reality. We then realized that Gruden wasn’t/isn’t the prize, he’s a piece to the entire puzzle. He’s the one who will make TN football greater than it’s possibly ever been, and in the meantime, the university as a whole will benefit thus the prize is really the shift of power from old money to fresh, new vision. And with that, here we are.... make sense?

Wow, Reverend, that's complicated. But yeah, I think I understand, at least the broad brush strokes of it.

I missed all the 5-year-ago stuff, of course, I'm a newb in VolNation still, but I can imagine how it musta been.

Thanks for the review. :good!:

 

[VFL-82-JP]

Welcome to the grude thread!

Thank you, Bob! :hi:

 

[VolFan32]

I'm telling you, Beaver is AV.

Don't think so. Hard to get alternate poster names on here.

 

[SSVol]

Yes.

It was surreal from the upper deck. Looked like two leaves floating on a pond.

 

[TnWalker]

I think we all severely underestimate how many "lurkers" have been on this thread for weeks.

People are hopeful. They want good news. They've been burned too many times in the past to say they're in, but they're here.

Agree. I've been walking through Disney World for the past with my phone out at every opportunity to check out these threads. I know my brother, who never posts, is doing the same. We're both all in!

 

[TenUhSee]

Anyone else been keeping an extra pair of underwear handy with them at work in case the Grude is announced?
